This was just one of the many small wishes written in Jane Sampson’s diaries.
And in those diaries that Jane had, Jas Black saw many similar wishes.
For instance, she wrote that when she grew up, she wanted to marry her piano teacher, or a chef, or a cleaner because she thought her piano teacher was very handso, marrying a chef ant she could eat delicious food every day, and by marrying a cleaner, she wouldn’t have to clean herself.
At that ti, Jane Sampson was very young, hence she had such innocent wishes.
The diaries that followed were from when Jane was a bit older.
Jas picked them up, but without flipping them open, he just looked at the dates and then put them back down.
Counting them, her diaries stopped at the age of 18.
After that, she never wrote again.
One diary per year.
The notebooks changed from cartoon covers to uniformly black and white covers later.
This also bore witness to her transformation from a carefree little girl who liked bright colors to a lancholic young woman who preferred only black and white.
Jas carefully preserved these diaries, but in those naïve ones from her childhood, he left the sa ssage in many places.
Wherever there was a diary entry about Jane wanting to marry soone, Jas left his flamboyant handwriting underneath.
You must be disappointed that in the end, you married a man nad Jas Black.
After leaving this ssage, Jas also signed his na at the end, Jas Black.
Jas thought, Jane didn’t know when she would find this ssage, but he guessed she would be furious when she did.
After he had put her diaries away properly, Jas then went to open the box next to him.
The box didn’t need a password, a gentle push was all it took to open it and reveal the stuff inside.
There were many odds and ends.
But most eye-catching was a card on top.
The card was still adorned with a red dried flower and it had black characters that spelled out a sentence.
Jane Sampson, I love you.
Suddenly, Jas rembered the origin of this card.
It was from a flower he had ordered for Jane when they were in Smytheton, with the corner of the card sporting the na and address of the flower shop.
Jas suddenly recalled that when Jane received the flowers that day, she indeed had a sneaky smile as she hid sothing away, refusing to let him see.
Now seeing this, Jas knew what Jane had hidden back then was this very card that said, Jane Sampson I love you.
She had been carefully treasuring everything through which he had expressed his feelings to her.
Even a re little card was treasured like a precious gem and kept in this box.
Beneath this card, there were several lipsticks.
Jas recognized them instantly, they were the ones he had given to Jane.
Numbers 13, 14, 520.
She had kept them all here separately, never daring to take them out for use.
So were clearly opened and tried, but in the end, she had carefully treasured them as well.
What she was hiding was her insecurity, as well as her feelings for him, which, along with these items, were carefully concealed.
At this mont, Jas felt deeply grateful for the words Alexander Forest had said to him back then.
Because he had spoken first, he gave her the courage to face, acknowledge, and accept those feelings, and so, he now had the opportunity to take a closer look at her heart, to carefully see just how much this woman nad Jane Sampson actually loved him.
